    Jerry White (born June 7, 1963) is the CEO of Global Impact Strategies Inc. and the Executive Co-Chair of Global Covenant Partners. He is known for leading high-impact campaigns including the historic International Campaign to Ban Landmines (which was co-recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize). He co-founded Survivor Corps, formerly Landmine Survivors Network, the first international organization created by and for survivors to help victims of war rebuild their lives.

    Background

    In 1984, White lost his leg — and almost his life — in a landmine accident. According to an interview he gave to the Israeli Channel 10, he came to Israel to learn Hebrew as part of his studies of Judaism (though his roots are Irish Catholic). On one occasion he visited northern Israel with a few other American backpackers to follow the Biblical prophets' footsteps. When they reached the Banias River in the Golan Heights, they decided to go off the beaten track and set up their camp on a nearby hill, where White stepped on a landmine. He said they later learned that the hill was Tel Azaziat, a former battlefield in which many minefields had been laid during the 1960s. White said he was hospitalized in the Sheba Medical Center at Tel HaShomer, and despite having the possibility to receive good medical treatment in the United States, he decided to stay at Tel HaShomer until he was fully recovered and rehabilitated, because he was impressed with the center's methods of rehabilitating people with serious limb injuries.

    Jerry White (Navigators)

    Jerry E. White is an American author, scientist, retired US Air Force Major General, and is perhaps best known as a Christian leader who is the immediate past International President of The Navigators, a worldwide Christian parachurch organization organization whose main purpose is the discipling (training) of Christians with a particular emphasis on enabling them to share their faith with others. White currently serves with The Navigators as President Emeritus and Chairman of the U.S. Board of Directors.

    Early life and education

    White was born in Iowa but raised for most of his life in Spokane, Washington. White's formal collegiate academic training began at the University of Washington, in engineering, and continued, especially in support of astronautics (though he has further credentials from within the U.S. Air Force's officer training regimens). His specific attainments are:

  • 1959 B.S. degree in Electrical Engineering, University of Washington
  • 1964 M.S. degree in Astronautics, Air Force Institute of Technology

    Tu No Sospechas

    by: Jordi

    Para ti tan solo soy el amigo que ya hace falta
    Cuando las cosas en tu vida ya no van como esperabas
    Ese hombre complaciente, siempre con risa en la cara
    Que con una sola frase, te devuelve la esperanza
    Para ti no tengo sexo, ni sentimientos ni mas nada
    Y si toco a tu puerta, hablando llega la mañana
    Y me llevas a tu cuarto, y me sientas en tu cama
    No adivinas mis deseos cuando miro yo tu falda
    Coro:
    Un amigo que no puede aguantar mas estas ganas
    De sentirte y abrazarte y enredarte en su alma
    Un amigo que se muere porque sepas lo que pasa
    Y tu sigues tan tranquila, y tu que no sabes nada
    Tu no sospechas que
    Cuando me besas se queda temblando mi cara
    Tu no sospechas que
    Cuando me rozas sin darte cuenta me robas la calma
    Tu no sospechas que
    Cuando hablamos no advierto a escuchar tus palabras
    Porque no sabes que
    Cuando yo miro tu boca inocente quisiera besarla
    Quisiera tenerla por siempre en la mia
    Tu no sospechas que, que de esta forma yo te quiero
    (repite coro)
    Tu no sospechas que, que de esta forma yo te quiero
